cooking is an art, but not everyone is an artist. I'm an engineer. echoes reminded me of the day I accidentally invented a new meal. a lil backstory. growing up in an African home can be a life-changing experience (I'm still in an African home btw, so trust my life's still being transformed). my mom taught me lots of things that I purposely unlearned, simply cause the intent behind them didn't sit well with me. cooking happened to be one of them things. cause, tf she mean I should learn to cook so I can serve my husband well when I get married?? bold of her to think I wanted to do this thing called marriage. and even if I did marry, why would I wanna be someone's house help? those were my thoughts as a 16 year old. I know better now. now that I'm well in love, I want nothing more than to serve my king to the best of my abilities. (that's what she said. I'd NEVER. lmao) anyway. one evening, my mom got a call. my uncle was in town for business and would be staying over till the next day. next morning, I was asked to make custard with fried akara (bean cake) and plantain for breakfast. the akara came out flat. completely flat. no shape, no form, no dignity. the plantain burnt. I panicked. I mashed it. I don't know why I mashed it, I just did. the whole time in that kitchen had been two things: problems and problem-solving. life kept throwing lemons and I kept making lemonade. only thing is, lemonade was not on the breakfast menu. I sandwiched the flat akara with the plantain mash, pressed it together, plated it neatly, and named it Akara Wellington. served it to my uncle with the custard like I'd been making it for years. he ate it quietly. said nothing. which was somehow worse than a complaint. my mom found out and spent the next ten minutes explaining how my uncle would go back to the village and broadcast to every eligible bachelor and their family that I cannot cook and am not fit to be a wife. I thought about it for a second. then remembered I hate men from my community anyway. they maltreat and suppress their women and I wanted none of that. at least no one would be coming to seek my hand in marriage from there. i'd become a solid red flag to red flags. if that ain't a W, i don't know what is. keyword is engineering, btw. ;-) – the definite end.

@yoda8e ahh, yodachukwu 😹😹😭💔

april 21st, 2026. oh, to be dumped for unexpected reasons. echoes reminded me of how I gave my boyfriend my X logins to prove I had nothing to hide. that night, we hopped on a call like we always do and he was talking bout some having trust issues, and how we shouldn't hide things from each other. so I said, 'here, go through everything. I trust you and I want you to trust me.' romantic, right? well..., he went through everything, and found something he couldn't unsee. found a dm where a guy friend had sent: 'don't give me a boner, it's bad for my health.' and I hadn't checked him, instead I indulged him. to me, it was nothing. we just texted like that normally. dexter didn't see it that way tho. he ended the call. blocked me on all ends. whatsapp, tiktok, everywhere and maybe mentally too (you never know). it was then I knew I'd messed up. the very thing I did to build trust burned it to the mud. dexter was a man too good to be true and I had just given him a reason to leave. I'm still not over it fr. anyways, he unblocked me the next day, cause I'm the love of his life, tf 🙂‍↔️ – the absolute end.

@eeoriel wym you have 10k debt?😳

crypto has completely ruined my life honestly I’m 20 turning 21. down to my last 200$ with no job nor degree. I started because I saw a video, thinking to myself this is something I could do to get an early head start in life. caught in the pumpfun meme wars that wrecked me, nowadays purely insider plays or crime tokens. I'm in over $10k debt and depending on my parents to survive. now I'm not sure where to even start with my life, feeling depressed almost every single day. I'm so young and i've ruined my life already. should have never started crypto in the first place. should have hawked gala. thanks for nothing crypto If you have a job for me , I'm very much available. arigato.

@Wickedgene_ make the bluetick dey waste?😹 once school resume, I dey go back isolation sha😭✌🏽 I'm alright fa. hoping you're good too?

@eeoriel Omg yes😭❤️

@D33n_web3 🎶 the world is moving we were never meant to stay 🎶 e dey happen, my deen.

@eeoriel uhm what is this weird turn of event? crazy story

july the 9th, 2023. echoes reminded me of the day I ran out of the bathroom stark naked. that day, a friend of my dad (mr robinson) had come visiting and was made to wait for his return. I was unaware, as I was busy bathing my stress away. I finished up, remembered I'd left my towel in my room, and did what I had always done as a kid sprinted from the bathroom, through the living room, straight into my room. except I wasn't a kid anymore. I was a grown ahh woman (with something to hide, ig). got dressed, walked out, and there he was, quietly seated in our living room. the look on his face told me everything I needed to know. I felt extremely embarrassed, and wanted to disappear. it was the first time a man had ever seen me that way. it meant something to me back then. lucky for me, mr robinson never visited again after that day. so I never had to face him again. he died, weeks later, in a car accident. whether I was relieved or sad 'bout that, I still don't know, but it's what it is :) - the absolute end.

@aGim_asf I like you more, my agim. can we get this relationship thing started now? body dey hot, mehn.

@eeoriel You know ball, I like you
